Workaround for CTD when decapitating with face overlays enabled?

[heehatatt]

CTD when decapitating npc's with face overlays enabled in nioveride.ini. Is there a workaround for this? Besides the obvious: disabling face overlays, or disabling decapitations.

Groov said it's because of the gore mod that the XPMSE skeleton had to support, where the corpse gets gibbed. Say for example, Solitude, especially at the beginning: after the beheading, head into the Winking Skeever, rent a room or hang around, then wait or sleep for anywhere between 12 hours to a day in-game -- do not try to exit the inn few minutes after the beheading because that'll cause a CTD while the skeleton is in use.

 

Why? So that the game cleans off the beheaded corpse.
